Scout groups are invited to Monroe County Environmental Education Center on Saturday, April 4, to take part in the annual Scout Day at Kettle Creek.

Scout Day is a fun day of learning about the natural environments of the Poconos. Hands-on activities will be used to teach each topic. Environmental educators from Monroe County Conservation District will lead the Scouts through Kettle Creek Wildlife Sanctuary, visiting three learning stations along the way: pond exploration, plants and birds.

Groups may choose to attend either the morning session starting at 9 a.m. or the afternoon session starting at 1 p.m. Both sessions last three hours and include all three learning stations.

For information, contact Darryl Speicher at (570) 629-3061. Cost is $4 per Scout, and a 50 percent non-refundable deposit is required to hold a reservation. Registration and final payment deadline is today.
